The essentials
What Aluseg does with the AT
All of this runs through the AT’s official lease communication and rent receipt webservice for software producers. Aluseg is provided by Quotidiano Tagarela Unipessoal Lda (NIPC 517944456), registered with the AT as a software producer.
Lease registration
The filing that replaces the old Modelo 2, using the data already in Aluseg.
Electronic rent receipt
Issued for each month, once the rent is recorded as paid.
Receipt PDF retrieval
Archived in your workspace and your tenant's.
Mutual TLS connection
A software-producer certificate identifies Aluseg to the AT on every request.
Data sent
What data is sent
Only what the law and the webservice require for the lease and each receipt: the landlord’s and tenant’s NIF, the property identification (artigo matricial), dates and rent amount. The AT receives it as a public authority, under the landlord’s legal obligation to register leases and issue rent receipts.
Why we need your password
Two authentication layers on every request
The AT webservice has no delegated-authorisation system (no “sign in with” option).
- 1
Software-producer certificate
Identifies Aluseg to the AT through a mutual TLS connection.
- 2
Taxpayer NIF and password
Identify the landlord issuing the document; the password is encrypted inside the request with the AT's public key (RSA + AES).
- 3
Request processed
The lease is registered or the receipt is issued directly in your Portal das Finanças.
Security
How we protect your password
Your Portal das Finanças password is treated with the same care as a banking secret.
Encrypted at rest
AES-256-GCM; the key lives only in the server environment, never in the database.
Not readable by the app
The encrypted column cannot be read by your session or anyone else's.
Decrypted only in memory
Only at the moment an AT request needs it.
Deletable at any time
In Settings › Tax, delete your credentials and Aluseg immediately stops making requests to the AT.

Frequently asked questions
Tax Authority (AT)
Does Aluseg use an official AT system?
Yes. We use the AT’s official webservice for lease communication and rent receipts, available to software producers, with a software-producer certificate.
Why do I have to give my Portal das Finanças password?
Because the AT webservice requires every request to be authenticated with the taxpayer’s NIF and password; there is no delegated authorisation for this service. The password is encrypted, used only at the moment of the request and can be deleted at any time.
Do the receipts appear in my Portal das Finanças?
Yes. Receipts are issued at the AT in your name and appear in your Portal das Finanças, just as if you had issued them manually.
Can I stop using the AT connection?
Yes. Delete your credentials in Settings › Tax and Aluseg immediately stops making requests to the AT. You can keep issuing receipts manually in the Portal das Finanças.
Is it included in the free plan?
No. AT integration is included in Essential (up to 5 properties, €60/year, VAT included) and Expert (up to 20 properties, €199/year, VAT included).
